How To Make Cinna-bun Cake In The Oven Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the cake and blend until smooth. Spread the cake mix into the bottom of a well-greased 9×13 baking dish.
Add the ingredients for the topping into a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. Drop the topping mixture by the spoonful on top of the cake mixture in the baking dish. Use a butter knife to swirl the topping through the top layer of the cake mixture.
Bake the cake for 40-45 minutes until a knife comes out clean when inserted into the center.
Mix the ingredients for the glaze together until smooth and pour over the warm cake.
Allow the glaze to set before serving.
